The title, Comparison is Violence: The Ziggy Stardust Meets Tiny Tim Songbook, would lead to you believe creator and star Taylor Mac was comparing David Bowie's glam rock persona to Johnny Carson's go-to ukulele player.
Not so. Taylor explains early in his one-tran show that he has often been compared to both entertainers, and he uses their music as a springboard to talk about the concept of comparison.
With Taylor's sassy gender-bending glam rock persona, it's hard to imagine there is any pop star worthy of comparison.
